What is the Community Gateway Program?
The Community Gateway Program (CG Program) at Linden Lab provides visibility for your community in the registration pathway on SecondLife.com
These gateways offer their own orientation path and give Residents an easier orientation in the virtual world. Besides supporting new Residents in getting around Second Life, Community Gateways offer a variety of regular events in-world, as well as great in-world locations to meet friends and explore the endless possibilities of Second Life. Some CGs even offer land for sale or rent, so Residents get the possibility to establish their homes close to the community they have chosen. For a complete Community Gateway listing by language, please check out this link: Community Gateway
